Generate UUIDs of every version instantly: v4 (random), v7 (time-ordered), v1 (time-based), v3 and v5 (name-based), plus the NIL and MAX UUIDs. Random versions use your browser's cryptographically secure generator, with options for uppercase, no hyphens or curly braces. Everything runs locally — no signup, nothing uploaded.
Each UUID uses the Web Crypto random source (crypto), the same one browsers
use for security-sensitive work — so collisions are practically impossible. Generation
happens entirely on this page and nothing is sent anywhere.
{…} GUID style.Yes. UUIDs are generated locally in your browser and never sent to a server, so they stay private to you.
Yes. They are version-4 UUIDs built from the browser's cryptographically secure random number generator (crypto), so collisions are practically impossible.
They are the same thing. GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) is Microsoft's name for a UUID (Universally Unique Identifier); both are 128-bit identifiers written as 32 hexadecimal digits.
A version-7 UUID begins with a 48-bit Unix millisecond timestamp, so UUIDv7 values sort in creation order — which makes them great as database primary keys (better index locality than random v4). This tool builds the timestamp locally and fills the rest with secure random bits.
Name-based UUIDs are deterministic: the same namespace + name always produces the same UUID. v5 hashes with SHA-1 and v3 with MD5. Pick a namespace (DNS, URL, OID, X.500 or a custom UUID) and type a name — useful for stable IDs derived from a value.
Yes, completely free with no signup. It is a client-side UUID generator for developers and students.
